Abstract
In this study, the flexural behavior of RC beams strengthened with prestressed basalt FRP (BFRP) laminates was investigated. Compared with the conventional carbon FRP (CFRP) laminate, BFRP exhibits a larger failure strain but lower modulus, in addition to its high strength and prominent creep rupture behavior; this makes BFRP a suitable option for cost-effective strengthening of existing beams. Nine specimens were prepared to investigate the...
